some weird probs with my car today?

i had some probs with my car today. first off this mornin around 10:45 i went out and started my car. as soon as i started it it made a quite loud ticking noise like there was no oil in it or somethin? that lasted for about 10 sec then went away. then while i was driving it my ses light kept coming on and off again. that is the first time that has ever happened. so i kept a good watch of my guages and they stayed normal. does anyone know what might be wrong?

Try the old paperclip between your two upper termials on your plug under the dash, and get the code out, that should start you on your way to figuring out what your problem is.

So it still ran fine, but SES light was flashing??
